Indictments this week in CIA leak inquiry?
WASHINGTON - The grand jury that has investigated the disclosure of a CIA officer’s identity is set to expire on Friday, fueling speculation that the special investigator will issue indictments sometime this week.

Top presidential political adviser Karl Rove and Vice President Dick Cheney’s chief of staff, I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, have emerged as central figures in the probe because they had contacts with reporters who learned the officer’s identity or disclosed it in news stories.

Asked whether Rove or Libby should step down in the event of an indictment, Sen. George Allen, R-Va., said Sunday that “I think they should step down. I do think that’s appropriate ... if they’re in the midst of an indictment.”

1. Indictments for sure.
I have been thinking Halloween, but I don't know if he is required to issue the indictments while the GJ is still officially in session, or if he can pick the relaease date more freely. Halloween would be a perfect day to frighten the ghouls.
